But Ruth replied to Naomi:
Do not ask me to leave you,
or to turn back from you.
Wherever you go, I shall go,
and wherever you stay, I shall stay.
Your people will be my people
and your God my God.
Wherever you die, I shall die
and there I shall be buried.
May the Lord deal with me
be it ever so severely
if even death separates you and me.
Adapted from Ruth 1:16-17
